Product details
Centrifugal air separator is used to remove dissolved air/gases or micro-bubbles from closed or open hydronic, HVAC, boiler or other water/fluid systems. In the process, it separates undissolved impurities as well. Principle of operation: due to the tangentially mounted connections, the water inside the air separator is brought into rotation. The rotation forces the heavy medium (water) against the wall of the air separator while air is collected in the middle. The collected air rises to the top and gets vented to the outside by the float vent. Impurities heavier than water, such as sand, welding debris and the like are forced to settle down at the bottom. These impurities can be removed through drain points located at the bottom. In the model with strainer, all impurities lighter or heavier than water are filtered. The strainer can easily be cleaned by removing the bottom flange. Benefits: removal of air bubbles reduces corrosion in piping, sludge formation; increases heat transfer efficiency; removes chances of airlock; and removes impurities heavier than water.
